Tent holiday accommodation in Mendip District

We arrived quite late to the place, but the lights were put on ready for us when we arrived. The place was perfectly tidy, everything we needed and more when we arrived. Beautiful fresh flowers on the table ... just absolutly perfect! Happily stay again, would definitely return.

The bell tents were lovely, very spacious with 5 beds inside and lots of lovely touches like tea lights and useful camping things you’d never think to bring. Thanks Nicky and the team for a lovely stay, highly recommended!

We had the most perfect time! Jono is a complete legend and made us feel right at home, he couldn’t be more helpful as a host. The care that has gone into the conversion of the safari tents is admirable, they have thought of how best to use every inch of space. We were a group of 4 + 1 dog but it would have comfortably held the two more adults, they’re huge. We borrowed Jono’s biked and cycled to the Sheppey pub which is around a 26km round trip but relatively flat route and well worth it. We also used the pizza ovens on site which was a great experience too. Thank you!

Our whole group had a fantastic weekend away at this beautiful spot. The rain didn't dampen our spirits as the facilities were perfect. The gorgeous yurt made a wonderful communal space & the firepit provided a magical outside spot. The tents were very comfortable & had everything we needed. We would highly recommend this private getaway & could not fault it. 10 out of 10!!

What an amazing place. We stayed in ash safari tent and it was so peaceful and perfectly accommodating. Heated blankets, fireplace, kitchen with fridge and everything you need. The pool and hot tub were an amazing bonus and the kids just loved it. We stayed for 3 nights but easily could have stayed the whole week and we were very sad to leave! Toasting marshmallows, pizza on site and beautiful scenic surroundings really made the holiday one to remember. We will definitely be returning!

Exactly what me and my family was looking for. Had lots of fun and really enjoyed staying here. Thank you for having us and I’m sure we will be back again 😊

Our time at Mark & Bridget’s glamping spot was pure MAGIC from the moment we arrived to the moment we left. We stayed there during my 50th birthday and what a way to celebrate… sleeping under the stars. The view from the very comfortable tent is jaw dropping. I told Bridget that it was difficult for us not to hear Howard Shore’s The Hobbit & Lord of The Rings soundtracks playing in our heads as we gazed out across the Somerset levels to Glastonbury Tor in the distance! It does feel like you have stepped through a portal into the Shire. We were blessed with some great weather so really got to enjoy it to the max. With all the fresh air, we slept like babies in the tent. If you want to get away from it all in a stunningly beautiful spot be close to nature, then this is a wonderful way to do it. Mark and Bridget were brilliant hosts too, and responded to any questions we had very promptly. This is an experience that comes HIGHLY recommended. Thank you Bridget and Mark! We feel brand new!

Brilliant first glamping trip with our two young girls (3 and 5). The tent was perfect; it had plenty of space for us all and the compost toilet being nearby was really handy. We loved the wild flowers surrounding the tent, the picnic bench and fire pit. Really safe place for girls to run around without worrying. This trip was so easy and comfortable that was are now considering trying camping next. Great first gentle step to win them all over!

Fantastic place to stay in Somerset countryside whilst visiting friends. A stones throw away from Bruton and 10 min walk into Wincanton. Charlie and Paul were extremely helpful, friendly hosts and I had everything I needed for a very cosy, comfortable stay, with beautiful view across the meadow. Very tastefully styled and well equipped too. Charlie organised a yoga class in the big chill out tent for a few of us which was extra special and the hot tub was especially magical at nighttime under the stars.

We have just spent 5 days at Clare's place and it certainly didn't disappoint. The whole site was spotlessly clean and they were very generous with their facilities. Everything had been really well thought out and the safari lodge was perfect for a family of 4. Lots to do and so easy to relax! We hope to return!

My friends and I had a great stay at Driftaway. We hired both the yurt and safari tent so that we had the whole site to ourselves and were able to pitch up another tent to accommodate three families with young children and a dog altogether. The tents and shower blocks are well equipped with cooking equipment and games. The surroundings are beautiful with a woodland behind which has deer, foxes, badgers and rabbits. The hosts were really friendly and responsive when I let them know the loo flush in one of the toilets wasn't working well. They were very accommodating when we had other friends visit for BBQs as well. Overall we really enjoyed our stay & would definately go back!

Tam and Johnnie could not have been more welcoming and helpful. We had such a relaxing couple of nights in one of their bell tents Our bed was super comfy. You could not want for anything. Every evening Johnnie prepared our fire pit and left us plenty of wood to burn into the night. The bench by the river was a lovely tranquil spot although we did not see the otters and beavers that frequent that part of the river we did see a heron amongst other birds. We hope one day to go back. Rusty our border terrier had a wonderful mini break and really enjoyed the dog treats Tam and Johnnie had left for him.

We had a wonderful family break despite the weather. Accommodation was comfortable and well equipped and great safe outdoor space for kids. We will back again.

From start to finish Nancy was an incredible host. She answered all of my questions, provided a wealth of information and made us feel so welcome when we arrived. Nancy took a keen interest in all of us, encouraging the children to be free and have fun. Nancy even went as far as to buy my son a birthday card and cake for us all to enjoy. This was our first camping experience and we were slightly sceptical before arriving, however we will definitely be returning. It was the perfect break away from reality. Thank you so much Nancy and co! Xx

We stayed in the bell tents and it was beautiful, the site is lovely and quiet, has a beautiful lake/pond and the bell tent area is sectioned off with trees/hedges so you have lots of privacy. The dogs loved it too and had lots of space to run and play. There are lots of bean bags, chairs, lights and fire pits. It’s incredibly cosy and was perfect for a couple of summer evenings. The hosts were great and when we needed more fire wood we were able to purchase some from them within an hour. We’d definitely recommend Redlands Breaks to others. A beautiful stay!

The tents were awesome and provided loads of room for the 4 of us. A very short walk to the shower (piping hot) and toilet. Would thoroughly recommend.
